President Trump Signs Coronavirus Emergency Aid Package
March 18, 20204:12 PM ET
President Trump signed the latest coronavirus aid package into law
Wednesday evening.
The Senate approved the new round of emergency funding earlier Wednesday.
The economic relief bill marks the second such aid package in a matter
of weeks. The legislation passed Wednesday provides paid sick and family
leave for some for U.S. workers impacted by the illness, expands
unemployment assistance, includes nutrition assistance and increases
resources for testing. Efforts are already underway to put together a
third, larger relief measure that could total $1 trillion.
